      Spoiler for tries:
      STARE
      SHACK
      SHAWL
      SHALL

      I debated between the last two for the 3rd guess and chose poorly.

            One of those grinders where you just hope to pick the right letter. Took me a while this time...

            Spoiler for Bogie:

            KE
            STOVE


            you could probably make an argument that my guesses weren't optimal.

              i will not make that argument. I had the exact same sequence for the last four guesses. Damn you Wordle.

              FARCE
              and then the next four. I thought for sure it was either going to be stole or stoke on my third guess. Grrrr

                Two days in a row I have correctly guessed the first two letters of the word. Two days in a row that has been a net negative.
                Spoiler for Bogey:
                STEAR
                STONE
                STOLE
                STOKE
                STOVE

                Clark, I think your sequence was brilliant, FTR.

                  Whoa rumblings of two different words today. Out of our group of 6 Wordle geeks, one got a different word. A proper name.

                  I wonder if his site was hacked.

                    Glad I'm not the only one today. A five.

                    STOVE

                    Same sequence as a few others.

                      This time worked backwards alphabetically from the available good options...


                      And a look at my (58-hole) scorecard shows one eagle, 23 birds, 20 pars, 11 bogeys, and three doubles. I could figure out my GHIN, but that'd be a little anal-retentive.

                            Ha. It's amazing to me how often second guessing in Wordle works against me. I should just go with my first thought.

                                On days like today (and yesterday), it is easier to go late in the day. After see your FB feed with people getting bogeys and double bogeys and you realize that using less common letters for earlier guesses is likely advantageous. Yeah, i'm mad about my double bogey-bogey stretch over the last two days.
